First, what exactly is keeping you from be-ing happy right now, in this moment? Most people will explain a situation that is either currently going on or has already hap-pened. This is why I can’t be happy now . . . Because that happened (or is happening). Really? Is that really the reason you cannot be happy right now? Or is it, in fact, the belief you are holding about the situation? Next question, what if that belief, that par-ticular thought that is causing your grief, wasn’t part of your belief system? What if it wasn’t true? One of the most empowering questions comes from Byron Katie (The Work): “Who would you be without that thought?” So often, in retrospect, with an expanded perspective, we discover that what was causing all the grief and pain and upset, wasn’t even true! The truth is, we never even know all the details. Attitude is everything. There are countless examples of people who have lived through hard times and even traumatic situations who have ultimately thrived. Not only be-cause they were able to hang in there, but because they found a way to look at life that brought even more inner peace. The third question is this: What makes you so sure that what is happening now isn’t going to ultimately lead you to a better place? Having interviewed people who are in a wonderful place in their lives I discov-ered a common thread. They recognized that if not for everything that had come before, they couldn’t be where they cur-rently are.

Just as when fruit trees and rose bushes get pruned, we also must endure those times in our lives when even what appears to be good needs to be “trimmed away” so that something even better, even more in align-ment with our life purpose, can come to fruition. The more you can trust this process to be so, the more happiness you will be able to connect with. Happiness doesn’t just hap-pen. Like fulfilling relationships and a healthy body, you must consistently culti-vate your happiness. If you find that you have been chronically unhappy, and you truly desire to be happy begin by simply stating out loud, “ I choose to be happy now.” Every time you catch yourself thinking a thought that brings you down, say, “I choose to be happy now.” Next, create a list of things you can do that help lift you up. If you would like some new ways to look at life, a short book that can be read over and over so you can reprogram your mind for more beauty, abundance and of course happiness, can be just what you need to stay focused. This kind of inspiration is in-valuable. Take charge of your reality today. Choose happiness now!

Learning how to manage time is a challenge for many and easy for some. Time Management is plan-ning every hour, minute and second of what, how, when and where you will divide 24 hours. You prioritize your time to accomplish your tasks. Things most important to you should have the highest ranking on your schedule. According to Wikipedia.com, time management is the act or process of exercising conscious control over the amount of time spent on spe-cific activities, especially to increase efficiency or productivity. Efficiency and productivity is using your time wisely. Don't let time slip away with-out productivity and accomplish-ment. Some people manage their time with "to do lists" and with dai-ly, weekly and monthly calendars called planners. Others use sticky notes, journals; pop up reminders on computer calendars, etc. What-ever method you choose, make sure it is effective and productive for you. I use a combination of to do lists and planners. I write everything down. I do this habitually so I won't forget anything. I also use daily and monthly planners. I started using the Franklin Covey Planner system when I took the class "What Matters Most" in 2001. I have a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction when I get things done. Daily and monthly planning keep me on track with my goals. I only focus on my daily schedule while leaving room for emergencies. Sometimes tragedies can delay your

goals. In these instances don't blame yourself, stay on track and pray for wisdom on how to proceed. Every November I plan for the next year. I include new goals and old goals. I also celebrate completed goals and tasks in the previous year. The old adage "Time Waits for No Man" is true and should be taken seriously. Time goes on no matter what. You cannot roll back time. Once time has moved on, it has moved on. In the Random House College Dic-tionary, redeem means to buy back, recover, or to make up for. When time is lost find a way to redeem the time to complete the task. Some people recover time by dou-bling up on tasks, delegating tasks and using technology. Other people resort to a method commonly used by some college students, which is pulling all nighters without any sleep. In Garfield Gates' article "Effective Study Habits for College Students" in HubPages.com, he gives 7 tips on how college students can study effectively and plan ahead. He also covers some time management tips for students. In Randy Morrison's CD series "Time: The Currency of a Prosper-ous Life," he says "The major differ-ence between the prosperous and the poor is their value of time." Managing your time is important. The way you manage time will de-termine how much you achieve in a given day, week, month or year. A
